The first time was in the shower, the water was really hot, and he had a space heater on also.
The second time he was at school rehearsing for a winter concert, it was really hot in the room, he was doing alot of moving around. He only passes out for about 10 seconds, and he is completely normal afterwards. These are the only 2 episodes. After the first time, we took him to the doctor and they ran blood work, cat scans, heart monitors, chest exray, and even a pediatric cardiologists looked at him, and everything has come back normal. Does anyone have any helpful thoughts?

It would be hard to determine this in the shower but does he perspire? If his body is unable to perspire properly in unusually hot situations and there is adequate fluids in his body, this might be a cause to consider for the overheating.

Try to make sure that he is always well hydrated. Water is our bodies coolant and when we are well hydrated we can handle temperature changes much better. When this happens to me, I know I better drink more water. But it would still be a good idea to keep an eye on it. I would also be interested in what his eating habits are. Feel free to email me with any further questions.

I passed out too when the water was really hot. It is dangerous. Be careful. But just take good care of your 11 year old. He will be fine.

properly, quite tall might want to point a deal of issues. 108 pounds for an athletic 11 12 months previous female should be high quality, in my view. perfect supplies you fairly some weight, and muscle is the heaviest cellular on your body.

I have an 11 year old Ford that overheats a lot too. So I guess its normal.

It is never "normal" to pass out. Is he dehydrated? I would make sure he drinks plenty of water every day and avoid over-heating.
